"Senior Brother, can you teach me swordsmanship hands-on?" Nalan Yanran asked Ning Luo.

Ning Luo was somewhat surprised.

But looking at his dewy-eyed little junior sister, how could he bear to refuse?

Ning Luo walked behind Nalan Yanran.

At that moment, Nalan Yanran suddenly leaned back against him.

In an instant, Nalan Yanran was nestled in Ning Luo's arms.

Ning Luo immediately felt the fragrant Nalan Yanran in his embrace.

Ding! Hugging Nalan Yanran from behind has earned you one Sign-in Opportunity!

Ning Luo's system sounded once again.

Ning Luo had not expected to gain a Sign-in Opportunity this way as well.

Did this mean he had unlocked a new position with Nalan Yanran? Nalan Yanran's fair face had soft, delicate lines. Her faint willow-leaf brows gave her an ethereal air untouched by worldly concerns.

Ning Luo held Nalan Yanran in his arms.

At this moment, Nalan Yanran's pair of captivating eyes blinked brightly, lively and intelligent. She had long lashes, a pretty little nose, moist cherry lips, and silky, gleaming dark hair, with a few strands hanging beside her ears.

Her waist was slender, her hands soft and boneless, her shoulders smooth and fragrant, and her legs long, giving her a graceful figure. She was no gaudy beauty; her delicate features revealed an extraordinary temperament.

Ning Luo was already intoxicated by the fragrant Nalan Yanran.

"Senior Brother, y-you're holding me too tightly. Teach me... teach me swordsmanship!"

Nalan Yanran's little face flushed slightly.

She knew that happiness had to be fought for, which was why she kept seeking Ning Luo out again and again.

Ning Luo would not refuse a beauty.

Holding Nalan Yanran, he whispered into her ear, "Junior Sister, this move is done like this!"

Ning Luo wrapped an arm around Nalan Yanran's slim waist.

Guiding Nalan Yanran's hand, he thrust forward.

Ding! Teaching Nalan Yanran swordsmanship has earned you one Sign-in Opportunity!

The two practiced several moves.

Then, Nalan Yanran turned to look at Ning Luo and softly asked, "Senior Brother, are you hiding a sword in your pants?"

The moment those words came out—

Ning Luo's face immediately reddened.

Still blushing, Nalan Yanran continued, "It poked me."

Ning Luo hurriedly let go of Nalan Yanran.

At that moment, Nalan Yanran turned back, her autumn-water eyes gazing at Ning Luo.

She rose onto her tiptoes.

And kissed Ning Luo on the lips.

At that moment, the two embraced and kissed.

Ding! Kissing Nalan Yanran has earned you one Sign-in Opportunity.

Then Nalan Yanran looked at Ning Luo and said, "Ning Luo's Brother, I've given you my first kiss. You have to take responsibility for me from now on!"

Ning Luo smiled at the adorable little girl.

How was Nalan Yanran as detestable as she had been written in the original work?

It was only because readers identified with Xiao Yan and stood on the opposite side of Nalan Yanran that they found her detestable.

See? Wasn't Nalan Yanran quite cute?

Ning Luo patted Nalan Yanran on the head and smiled. "Don't worry."

"Hehe!" Nalan Yanran immediately grinned.

Then, blushing, she ran away.

Ning Luo returned to his residence.

At this point, he was preparing to begin learning alchemy.

For Ning Luo, becoming an Alchemist was also extremely important.

Taking pills to grow stronger—he could not afford to buy medicine. If he became an Alchemist himself, not only could he refine pills for his own use, but he could also auction them off.

He had signed in for the Alchemy Secret Codex.

It recorded all kinds of pill-refining methods.

Ning Luo studied the medicinal pills and began refining them.

As Yun Yun's disciple and a Core Disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect, it was very easy for Ning Luo to obtain some herbs for alchemy.

Ning Luo acquired the herbs.

Then, he prepared to begin refining pills.

He would start with the most basic Foundation Building Spirit Liquid.

Following the records in the Alchemy Compendium, Ning Luo began to condense fire.

He circulated his battle qi.

Boom—

A crimson flame immediately appeared in Ning Luo's hand.

Then, he used his soul to sense the flame.

Measuring the herbs, controlling the fire, condensing the pill—he completed it all in one fluid motion.

A green spirit liquid immediately appeared before Ning Luo.

Ning Luo was overjoyed.

Looking at the green spirit liquid before him, he knew that his first attempt at alchemy had been a great success.

"Looks like alchemy isn't as difficult as I imagined!"

Ning Luo then refined some more spirit liquid.

After more than ten attempts, he had failed only once.

Not bad at all.

Then, Ning Luo poured the Foundation Building Spirit Liquid into a wooden tub, planning to take a good soak that evening.

Just then—

That little Nalan Yanran knocked on Ning Luo's door again.

Ning Luo opened the door.

Nalan Yanran tilted her head and looked into Ning Luo's room.

"Senior Brother, what are you doing? Why does your room smell so pleasantly medicinal?"

Ning Luo immediately said, "This is the Foundation Building Spirit Liquid I just refined. I was about to take a bath!"

At that moment, Nalan Yanran walked into Ning Luo's room.

She saw a large wooden tub full of green Foundation Building Spirit Liquid bathwater.

She immediately became somewhat envious.

Looking pitifully at Ning Luo, she said, "Senior Brother, there's so much Foundation Building Spirit Liquid that you definitely can't absorb it all by yourself. How about we soak together?"
